‘I asked a number of young people how and when they had become a Christian. Several things struck me. They had all been converted as children. They could all remember very clearly where they were, who they were with and what happened. Most of them were with family members, often brothers and sisters as well as parents. It was obviously seen as a very important occasion.

Many of them spoke of having further experiences of God, at a later date, which were more dramatic and life changing; but these were entirely separate from becoming a Christian. That experience stood complete at the time it was made, no matter how young they’d been.’

This is an extract from Children’s Ministry Guide to Leading a Child to Christ by Cathy Kyte. We teach children the good news about Jesus Christ and sometimes forget to challenge them to make a personal commitment to him. In her book Cathy goes on to address some of the difficult questions, such as, ‘How young is too young?’ ‘What if their parents are from another faith?’ ‘How can you tell if a child is ready?’ and provides insights into the practical issues of sensitively encouraging a child to respond to the Lord.
